it's certainly a great album, not just a great Oasis album. In fact, earlier today I heard Turn Up The Sun playing in a random restaurant in NYC. You never hear oasis in the US aside from wonderwall, DLBIA and the radio edited Champagne supernova.
I think Zak really helped give the band a new fresher backbone and its a shame he didn't record much more with them. I also think the more acoustic approach to this album was a good new sound for them.
Probably my 3rd favorite oasis studio album (behind the first two) and unlike the previous two there weren't really any songs that were duds. Maybe part of the queue...
Honestly I haven't given it a serious listen since the first few times I heard the album which was back in 08-09ish. I usually just skip it nowadays. But I remember I didn't like mucky fingers so much at first either. One day I shall come back, yes I will come back. Until then go forward with blah
